ART POSTING

(Subject not going through....Third time's the charm...??)

Art stuff thread starting...NOW!  If you draw stuff, you can post it here! I draw in a sort of anime/manga/toon style, but if you don't, don't let that stop you from posting your stuff!  I would love to see other people's art so post away!  They can be OCs, fan art, or just random stuff.  You can use any media, including digital, like I do!  Just to let you chatterboxers know, I started this thread so we can share our tricks of the trade with each other.  Feel free to: ask questions about how to draw certain things, post techniques, share art, and mostly HAVE FUN!  If you draw your OCs, feel free to share information about them such as their names and that sort of thing.  Same goes for fan art since not all of us know where these characters are from.  You don't have to be polished with your art.  I myself am just a beginner at anime/manga/toon.  I'm not good at hands so if any of my hands looks particularly cruddy, you know why.  I also struggle sometimes with feet so same goes for that.  If any of you know how to draw a particularly good hand or foot, feel free to share your trick for it.

Going to post a picture of my OC, Tuxedo, if this post goes through okay.

Hey everybody! It's Starseeker. I know I never post any art of my own-- I don't think my parents would approve-- but I'm always on this thread, admiring you guys' art. I'm trying to work up the courage to post some of my own, however, because I've recently changed my art style and it is so much more realistic! I've started using circles and other basic shapes as guides, and it's really helped me. Anyway-- I wasn't here to talk about me! I wanted to ask, does anyone else here use the painting app Procreate? I do, and I'm trying to get more into digital drawings after seeing what y'all have accomplished here. I was wondering if you had any tips or tricks. Even if you don't use Procreate, and tips or tricks for digital drawings would be appreciated! I've been doing traditional drawings for as long as I can remember, and I'm only just starting to try digital. I've tried the internet, but it's not much help. I figured you guys could help a little more. Umm... sorry for the long post! But really guys, all your art is amazing and I hope you keep doing it!

I use SketchBook for most of my art.  It's pretty cool.  My best piece of advice to give you on this type of stuff is to TAKE ADVANTAGE OF LAYERS.  I usually have artwork that has at least 2-3 layers on it.

@Lucy:

ok, thanks! On the most recent drawing I've started in Procreate, I did try to use some layers. It worked for the most part.

I was at the Tampa airport for like 6 hours last week because my flight kept getting delayed and delayed and I couldn't get on a sooner one... so I played this game where I sat a table and drew random people in the airport, making sure that it wasn't obvious I was drawing them. Here's the pages from my notebook.

I love drawing people in the airport!!! It's such a fun way to pass the time. Your people look amazing!

I find that really cool. I feel like it's something you would read in the biography of a famous artist..."As a teenager, So and So would draw the people they saw in the airport..." I can actually imagine some of the people you draw too.

I am not a visual artist, but I love checking this thread. It's length and equally great variety and talent is something I quite enjoy.

Did you forget to post it or did you just want to tell us that? I would love to see your unorthodox superhero!

I just finished outlining my creature. What color should it be? I can't decide!

Dark blue! Maybe swirls or zigzags of blue/purple.
